Trouble building LinkChecker 5.3 on OSX

[wummel]

Converted from SourceForge issue 3093852, submitted by richb-hanover

Hello,

I'm trying to build LinkChecker 5.3 from source on OSX (I'm using MacOSX 10.6.4). I unzip it then cd to the LinkChecker directory and issue the python setup.py build command. Here's the error shown at the end of the build messages:

running build_ext error: No such file or directory

What other information could I provide? Many thanks.

What Python version do you use? (try typing "python" in a terminal and copy the output)

This Python bug report suggests setting the CC variable (has been fixed in Python 2.6.4): http://bugs.python.org/issue6957

It's Python 2.6.5...

PS Good Sleuthing!

Another thing: do you have the gcc C compiler installed? It should be installed with the OSX SDK.

Ahah! That was the clue. When I upgraded MacOSX 10.5.x to 10.6.4, I neglected to upgrade my version of XCode.

I ran that update (from version 3.1x to 3.2.4) and now LinkChecker 5.3 builds, installs, and runs. Thanks!

Ok, closing.
